After everything was arranged, Qin Zheng first went to the nearby Xianghe Restaurant and bought three kilograms of chestnut cake, and then went to Aunt Qin's house.
Aunt Qin lives in a mud-brick house built decades ago.
The black door has lost a lot of paint and is infested with moths.
When Qin Zheng walked to the door, he heard the excitement inside.
The town is very peaceful, and daily life is just a matter of life, salt, sauce and vinegar.
Qin Zheng's return is obviously a big event.
Aunt Qin and her family are also talking around the main room after dinner.
Qin Zheng knocked on the door gently.
As soon as Aunt Qin opened the door, she saw Qin Zheng.
From the facial features that were vaguely similar to Qin's, she immediately guessed who it was.
She saw Qin Zheng politely came forward to meet him.
He also called her cousin with respect, and she quickly welcomed him in warmly.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw that the three main rooms facing north and south of the courtyard also looked weathered.
There is the east wing on the side, which is relatively new, or was built specifically for the purpose of marrying a daughter-in-law.
There is only a thatched house and a shed in the west.
In the shed, there is a cow grazing with its head down.
Aunt Qin gathered the gray hair scattered around her cheeks, and enthusiastically pulled Qin Zheng to let her into the house.
She said to herself: "It's very cold outside, hurry up and get warm inside."
Seeing Qin Zheng coming, her daughter-in-law lowered her head and went to the east wing.
Qin Zheng entered the house, only to see that the house had been plastered with mud and was already blackened by smoke.
The tables in the middle were almost crooked with their legs broken.
Next to the desk is a portrait of the god who was invited to celebrate the New Year last year.
There are several yellowed New Year pictures posted next to the desk, all of which are good omens of good luck, longevity and fortune.
There is an earthen stove burning on the side of the door, but I am willing to use firewood.
It is burning hot, and the room is indeed very warm.
Aunt Qin saw Qin Zheng looking at the house and said, "I have lived in this house for thirty or forty years.
It was built when I got married.
Now it is too old and made of mud.
It is no longer useful.
It should have been renovated a long time ago, but we were short of money and the eldest son of the family got married two years ago, so we could only build an east wing. " Qin Zheng smiled, presented the three kilograms of wrapped chestnut cakes in his hand, and said, "It's not a rare thing.
Let's give it to the little kid to eat and play with."
Aunt Qin took it in her hand and felt it was heavy.
She burst into laughter and praised her repeatedly: "Qin Zheng, you are a sensible kid."
Qin Zheng smiled lightly and said: "Auntie, my father has been gone for all these years and has never come back.
I am very emotional when I return to my hometown this time, so I hope to treat everyone to a light meal at noon today, so that we can get together and have a lot of fun.
So that I can recognize the villagers, and I hope that my cousin will appreciate it and not refute Qin Zheng’s face. " Aunt Qin felt even happier after hearing this.
It turned out that when Qin Renren left, the property left behind was quickly divided between Qin's second family and Qin's third family.
She missed it because she returned to her parents' home.
Later, despite all the commotion, she could not save a single cent.
This matter has been mentioned for many years.
It's hate.
It doesn't matter that you and I don't have it.
If you have it and I don't have it, then I can't wait to pull you down.
So now that Qin Zheng is back, she is the happiest, thinking about what will happen next.
At that moment, Aunt Qin agreed repeatedly, and began to test her words: "Nephew, have you invited your second and third aunts?"

Qin Zheng nodded with a smile: "That's natural."
Aunt Qin laughed more and more from ear to ear, thinking that there was going to be a lot of fun, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay" When Qin Zheng saw this, he knew that what he had come to do had already become clear.
He immediately said: "Qin Zheng came back this time, but he was really troubled.
Originally, he planned to use the house that his father left behind when he came back.
Taking advantage of the fact that there are three houses there Zuofang's shop happens to be a small business, so he can establish a foothold at home, but the house is occupied by the third aunt, which makes him very helpless. " These words really hit Aunt Qin's heart.
She nodded repeatedly and stared wide-eyed: "Isn't that right?
How could such a big house be taken over by his family?
Not to mention that your house is very big.
Those three stores, if rented I don't know how much money I can make when I go out.
I just hate this family.
They don't know how to run a good business, but they always cause trouble and make trouble with the neighbors.
No one has rented the store, and now it is ruined to 70%.
Eight falls, nothing like it” Qin Zheng nodded: "That's exactly what you said.
Qin Zheng wants to use that house, but I'm afraid the third aunt won't move out easily."
Aunt Qin looked at the door and saw no one else, so she whispered to Qin Zheng: "I have an idea about this matter.
Listen, if you do it this way, you will have to go back to the house."
He can always cause trouble for her."
Qin Zheng said hurriedly: "Auntie, if you have any ideas, please give me some advice.
If you really want to return to the house in the future, Qin Zheng will have a generous gift for you."
Aunt Qin finally got Qin Zheng back, and she had been angry for so many years.
Now she heard Qin Zheng say that he had generous gifts, and she became more and more interested, so she whispered in Qin Zheng's ears.
Qin Zheng nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
Aunt Qin was also quite proud to see that Qin Zheng had listened.
At the end of the day, Qin Zheng said goodbye and asked Aunt Qin again: "I hope Aunt Qin will help me to say a few words of justice."
Aunt Qin patted her chest for reassurance and said that she would invite a few famous old people from Shilipu to go with her.
They had discussed it in advance, so there would be no problem.
At this point, Qin Zheng left with satisfaction and went to Second Aunt Qin's house.
When Second Aunt Qin saw that it was Qin Zheng who was coming, she was very defensive and did not let Qin Zheng in.
Qin Zheng then mentioned inviting his second aunt to come over for dinner.
Although second aunt Qin was suspicious, she agreed.
After leaving Aunt Qin's house, Qin Zheng went to Uncle Wang's house.
Uncle Wang has two sons and one daughter.
The two sons are out doing business to earn money.
The younger daughter has just been named Cui'er and has just grown hair.
Uncle Wang warmly welcomed Qin Zheng into the house.
The furniture in this room is all simple and elegant.
There is a painting hanging on the side of the main hall, but it is a landscape painting by Wang Runzhi.
Qin Zheng vaguely heard Wang Runzhi's name and knew that this should be a big man.
When Mr.
Wang saw Qin Zheng staring at the painting, he smiled and said, "It's just for someone else.
It's not worth much."
Qin Zheng smiled and stopped looking.
He only mentioned that he wanted to treat guests.
Naturally, Uncle Wang praised him repeatedly and said that he would definitely go there later.
After leaving Uncle Wang's house, Qin Zheng returned to his house, only to see Little Bao Gu was there, accompanying Lu Fang to pack up the various vegetables, meat, and rice noodles he had just bought.

Qin Zheng asked Lu Fang to pick up some water and firewood first, while she continued to collect the ingredients and sort them.
When Lu Fang came back with two buckets of water, she began to clean and organize them.
Little Bao Gu was used to doing kitchen work by raising children, so she also helped out now.
Qin Zheng had an idea in mind.
If she wanted to quickly prepare meals for so many people by herself, there was only one way, and that was to cook in a big pot.
The big pot dish is a common dish for common people.
All important events such as the wedding of children, the funeral of the elderly, and the sacrifice of ancestors usually require a big pot of dish.
Although the cauldron dish is home-cooked, it is a seemingly ordinary dish that is not easy to make well.
You know, for such a big pot of food, the control of oil and salt, the reasonable ratio of seasonings, the timing of adding various dishes to the pot, and the heat of cooking are all very particular.
Qin Zheng was very good at doing this.
Her father, Qin Yiren, has several seemingly ordinary but unique and exquisite cooking skills, one of which is making big pots of food.
After Qin Zheng had cleaned all the ingredients, Lu Fang also returned with two bundles of firewood.
Little Bao Aunt looked at Lu Fang and smiled: "Brother Lu, your face is pale."
Qin Zheng looked up and saw that Lu Fangzuo's face was covered in gray, and he didn't know where it came from.
Lu Fang smiled to himself and reached out to wipe it, but he didn't wipe it correctly, causing the dust to spread more and more on his face, like a ghost drawing a charm.
In fact, Third Aunt Qin's family was all sneaking around to look over at this time.
Seeing Lu Fang appear, the little girl from the Qin family hurriedly wanted to come out, but her mother held her down tightly.
However, when she saw that Lu Fang's face was dirty, she She still broke free and ran out, took her own veil, her cheeks turned red, and she handed it over shyly: "Mr.
Lu, here's the veil for you."
Lu Fang looked at the clean handkerchief and shook his head: "Thank you, Miss Liu'er, but I still don't need it, so as not to stain Miss Liu'er's handkerchief."
Liu Er was about to say something, but Qin Zheng directly brought a ladle with clear water in it.
She handed it to Lu Fang and said, "Go to the corner of the courtyard and wash yourself.
After washing, come back and help me choose vegetables to light the fire. " Lu Fang took it and asked Bao Gu to help pour some water, then he washed himself with that little water.
Liu'er stared blankly at Lu Fang who rejected her, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
She went back to the house and complained to her mother: "Mom, look at Mr.
Lu, what kind of talent he is.
Why did Brother Qin let him Let’s make a fire and cook.”
What a waste.
Third Aunt Qin was scheming and had her own ideas: "Liu'er, don't worry.
Since they live in our yard, if you really want to, how can you not have a chance?
The most important thing now is to figure out the origin of Lu Fang.
I It seems that he is not an ordinary person, why did he come back to our place with the children of the old Qin family?
It seems that he still listens to the children of the old Qin family. " After hearing this, Liu'er nodded and said, "What mother said is very reasonable.
You can try to trick them tomorrow."
Third Aunt Qin smiled meaningfully: "They suddenly bought so many things today, and they don't know what's wrong with them.
Let me go over to help them and find out the news."
At this time, Qin Zheng started to cut the meat.
Qin Zheng was very particular about cutting the meat.
The meat should not be cut too thin.
If it is too thin, it will be overcooked and it will not be chewy.
Of course, it should not be cut too thick, too thick.
Not easy to mature.
She pressed the piece of meat with one hand, and took the knife with the other hand.
She raised and lowered the knife with both hands, and she heard a neat and even sound of snapping.
When she looked over, she saw a row of uniform layers one and a half finger wide.

The distinct slices of meat were lined up on the chopping board.
The pieces of meat are already very neat, but they are also red and white, which makes them look really good.
Aunt Bao, who was preparing to burn it, was shocked: "Wow, Brother Qin, you cut it really well."
Lu Fang has been with Qin Zheng for a long time, but he has never seen Qin Zheng cut meat.
Now that he saw it, he was slightly surprised.
With this swordsmanship, if Qin Zheng were practicing martial arts, he would probably be a first-rate master.
Qin Zheng quickly poured the row of meat on the chopping board into the cold water in the pot, and ordered Lu Fang to start boiling the water.
When the water was just warm, he took a wooden spoon and carefully skimmed off the foam on the surface.
Then use the grate to pick up the pork belly again, put it all in a grate and wait for the moisture inside to dry up.
Aunt Qin happened to come to the door at this time and saw Qin Zheng cutting vegetables.
She remembered Qin Zheng's father Qin Renren's cooking skills back then and couldn't help but want to see how Qin Zheng was doing.
Qin Zheng began to cut the Chinese cabbage.
The Chinese cabbage should not be cut into too small pieces, otherwise it will shrink when cooked.
The horse potatoes and sweet potatoes should be cut into thin slices, not thick.
Then there was another round of raising and lowering the knife, and the sound of chopping vegetables evenly sounded.
Various vegetables were quickly and neatly cut and set aside for later use.
At this time, the water in the pork belly was almost drained.
She put it in a basin, sprinkled it with a layer of salt, then mixed the soy sauce and oil in a one-part to one-part ratio, then poured it on the pork belly, mixed it thoroughly, and marinated it.
Third Aunt Qin was leaning at the door of the kitchen, picking her teeth with a pomegranate branch.
When she saw this, she couldn't help but smile and said, "The eldest nephew of the Qin family is really a good cook.
He is no worse than your father back then."
When the pork belly was ready to dry, she first put oil in a small pot next to it.
When it was seven-cooked, she began to add the meat.
She fried the meat until the fat sizzled out and became yellow and bright, then fished it out.
Picked it up and threw it directly into the big pot next to it.
At this time, the water had boiled.
Qin Zheng put onions, ginger, pepper, aniseed, nutmeg, bay leaves, cooking wine, light soy sauce and other condiments into the pot, and then added the freshly marinated pork belly.
Without raising his head, he said: "Third Aunt doesn't have to cook at noon today.
I'll go back and try Qin Zheng's cooking."
Third Aunt Qin said coquettishly: "Hey, I was originally worried about when I could start cooking at noon today.
Now that you say this, it's a good relationship, so there's no need to do it."
After hearing this, Aunt Bao wiped the sweat from her forehead and said loudly to Aunt Qin amidst the roar of the bellows: "Aunt Qin, you have to think about cooking in the future.
Brother Lu and Brother Qin also have to cook.
Are you using the kitchen?"
These words made Third Aunt Qin feel quite uncomfortable.
She turned white like Aunt Bao and threw the pomegranate branch she was picking her teeth at, "You ignorant little coquettish girl, do you have a place to talk?"
Seeing this, Aunt Bao chuckled and quickly continued to pull the bellows hard, causing beads of sweat to appear on her forehead.
While the meat was stewing, Qin Zheng quickly cut and coded some cabbage hearts, scallions, tofu, etc.
When the water boils, start adding vermicelli, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and finally cabbage.
When all the dishes were gone, she covered the pot and started preparing the cold dishes.
Third Aunt Qin saw that she couldn't intervene and couldn't talk to him, so she leaned on the threshold and looked at Lu Fang.
She saw that Lu Fang was looking at such a handsome young man yesterday, but today he was really embarrassed, with a pimple on his forehead.
Sweat and gray cheeks mixed together to form ravines.
The firelight illuminated his face, and he really wanted to bury himself as much as possible.
Third Aunt Qin smiled apologetically and asked, "Mr.

Lu is unfamiliar with burning the big bellows stove in our house.
I guess he is not someone who often does this."
Lu Fang could ignore Qin Zheng's third aunt's family as much as he could.
He was busy cooking and cooking, so he naturally had no time to pay attention to them.
Qin Zheng, on the other hand, explained calmly: "Third Aunt, he is my newly hired man.
He has just been hired and is not yet familiar with it."
When Aunt Qin heard this, she was surprised and said: "Oh, you are planning to do some business, so you hired a man."
Hearing this, Qin Zheng replied: "Of course it's a restaurant."
Aunt Qin was shocked when she heard this: "Where did you come from to open a restaurant?"
When Qin Zheng heard this, he stopped, raised his head and smiled at Aunt Qin: "Isn't this a ready-made facade at home?"
Third Aunt Qin suddenly felt that Qin Zheng's smile had a strong chill, like an autumn wind, biting her bones.
She blinked her eyes, and when she looked again, she didn't smile, only indifferently, as if Qin Zheng's smile just now was her illusion. tgtgd1806102:
